yesterday, while i was working, i looked out the window and noticed the most amazing thing happening in the sky. granted this was not going to be an epic, ground breaking sunset, but, it was going to be incredible. and not only was it going to be incredible but, it was gonna change the lighting in the air, soften it if you will, give photographs, if taken properly, that "rosy eyed" effect. so i grabbed my keys, grabbed boo, (whom i always wish we had spelt her name as bue, like sue), our family black lab, and ran like a bat out of hell, (just ask my dad whom almost got knocked over in the process), to my car. windows down, both heads out the window (someone shoulda photographed that one), we dashed to the beach.
granted we coulda really ran but why be hasty when you can drive three blocks so much faster. truth of the matter is, with photography, time is of the essence. and when you have the timely essence of fighting the sun, (remember when i was able to put the sun on hold for fossil falls????) you just have got to go go go. sorry greeny's but gas guzzling is a must. carbon footprint a little bigger, check! (i've got to make my stamp somehow people!) well, before you chastise me for some of my non green tendency's (i use ziplock bags too if you wanna add that to the growing list), check out the following pics. because to me, adding to the atmospheric pinks with my car exhaust was well worth it!
two things. one i love sunsets. two i love it when pictures blur the lines between photographs and paintings. that is, when it's not digitally done. otherwise it's just an artificial illusion. these, are an "ART-official illusion".(i just made that up, but shoot, maybe i'll coin it.)
xoxo.
